Hey, my pink 1/12th scale looks pretty cool. I hope he has some left to do some little parts and maybe another kit.

just a quick question. don't you like the "wings" on the TC4 top deck????. I never had a problem with during testing. snd if I had a TC4 I would be running the B.M.I. chassis on it just because of the top deck setup (along with all the other features). not trying to cause any trouble, just asking.
Just my opinion, I don't care for the the camber mounts in the cf upper deck. I know it's stronger than the stock parts. I just don't want to strip or use a nut under the ball stud. If you tear out or splinter the cf, then you scrap the upper deck. I doubt this would happen to anyone else, but me. Again, only my opinion and being the "wanna-be engineer" that I am, I think using a spacer with the ball stud mount in one would allow more surface area to be mounted flush together.

I'm not sure how low you could go with a new motor mount, but I'm sure it could go lower than what I see on the TF version??? I'm sure they designed it higher because they wanted to get the top of the diff cases out without having to remove the upper deck. I'm sure Jason will come up with the best allowed design possible.

My most desired features are; BMI TC3 motor mount, ball link mounts apart from the upper deck, the narrowest 3mm chassis possible and cf shock towers. I'll be happy just with a motor mount change. But the rest would be a bonus. I just can't wait to see how much better the BMI will make this car and having an upper deck to prevent the front imput shaft from shifting in a crash.

Check out Page 40 of the BMI 1/12th scale thread.

The car hasn't changed much except for the 3 shock setup that I am toying with right now.

wow Jason..that looks a nice chassis...one Q

is it narrower than the stock FK05? if so then the FK05 chassis is NOT the narrowest in the world anymore (as they claimed)
